Coming of Age

Peter Ford’s post, Coming of Age: An Introduction to the NEW worldwide web , led me to this wonderful book. The list of contributors is so exciting ….Peter, Ewan, Josie…..just to name a few. Peter explains how Terry Freedman was the force behind this project. Peter says:

From the outset, Terry’s view was that this should be a free download to encourage the widest possible audience. You can view the table of contents and list of contributors here.

Kudos to Terry and the authors of this incredible project. It is truly a model that shows the true collaborative and sharing spirit of the web. I can’t wait to read each and every article! It’s going to be one of our “best-practice” resources to share with other educators.

I am on Terry’s email list for Computers in Classrooms and always found it so useful, especially in the sharing of the resources with classroom teachers.

I would like to personally thank Terry and everyone involved with the project. A tip of the blogging hat for an absolutely incredible model to share with others!
